These days coincide the annual anniversary of Iraqi revolt against British colonialism

The 20th day of the month of Rabi' al-Thani, coincided the issuance of the Fatwa of Grand Ayatollah Sheikh Muhammad Taqi al-Shirazi, may Allah bless his soul, that shook the pillars of the unjust British colonialism, which was trying to defraud Iraqi people under the cover of elections and falsifying them in order to take away Iraqi throne.

British colonialism had promoted the news throughout Iraq that they want to reconstruct and help the people to bring them up to meet their overall interests but Imam Shirazi stood against that conspiracy with his Fatwa calling for revolution.

Dozens of thousands of copies were made and distributed in every city and village, and in each house and cottage, which caused a national shake in the hearts of Iraqis, and the British policy suffered a setback that humiliated the English rulers and their followers after them.
